.NET Core 2.0, .NET Standard 2.0, VS2017.3 (!)

.NET Core 2 Released, Supports .NET Standard 2.0 @ InfoQ

"The highly anticipated .NET Core 2 SDK has been officially released by Microsoft. The debut of .NET Core 1 exhibited great potential, but many developers found the supported number of .NET APIs to be lacking. That all changes in this release of .NET Core, which implements .NET Standard 2.0. Through supporting this standard, .NET Core 2 supports 32,000 APIs. "

.NET Standard 2.0 Has Been Finalized @InfoQ

".NET Standard is Microsoft’s solution to provide .NET compatibility across multiple platforms,

.NET Standard 2.0 is supported by .NET Framework 4.6.1, .NET Core 2.0, Mono 5.4, Xamarin.iOS 10.14, Xamarin.Mac 3.8, and Xamarin.Android 7.5. A new version of UWP will be made available later this year with support for the latest standard."
